Editing Stretch (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)

A '''Stretch'''<ref name=guide>{{cite|author=Miller, Kent; Munson, Terry|title=''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' Player's Guide|language=American English|date=1995|publisher=Nintendo of America|page=[[:File:SMW2 Guide 128.jpg|128]]}}</ref> is an [[list of enemies|enemy]] in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its Game Boy Advance version]]. This variant of [[Shy Guy|Shy-Guy]] is taller and thinner than an ordinary Shy-Guy, with additional hair on its head. A [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] cannot defeat Stretches by [[jump]]ing on them; instead, when jumped on, Stretches get flattened and spit out [[watermelon]] seeds. If a Yoshi keeps at least one Stretch around, he can easily take out other enemies nearby. Stretches are very rare, and they are encountered in only two [[level]]s; the GBA version also includes magenta ones in [[Endless World of Yoshis]].
